Soak one cup full (150 gms) of any gram ( Pachai Payaru / Karamani / Thattai payaru ) in water.

Day 2 – Drain the water & allow it to become dry – moisturefree – by spreading it out over a piece of cloth for 30 minutes.

Now preparation – Take 150 to 200 ml of plain curd ( suggestion –  not to use sour curd)

Pour the curd in a salladai ( Sieve) and drain the water in the curd.

Now add 1 – 1.5 Teaspoon of Tomato Ketchup ( next choice is Sauce) to the curd. —– Diet Ketchup is also available in Metro cities for the CALORIE CONSCIOUS !!

Then add a sittigai Salt & Pepper (black or white )

Now mix curd,Ketchup , salt & pepper powder together.

Last – add the sprouted gram to the above mixture and again mix well.

Those who like a few drops of lemon can do so.

This can be a very good breakfast ( and stomach full too )
